In a step-by-step approach, children are taught how to add three, four and five and bigger single-digit numbers. This enables them to gain solid calculation skills without being confused about decimal places. Building basic addition skills is vital to later understanding of the decimal system, which is the foundation of higher level arithmetic concepts and skills taught at school. The purpose of this book is to prepare children for school-level mathematics.

Early-learning maths is made simple by focussing on teaching children how to add numbers one and two to other numbers. This very basic mathematic skill cannot be acquired through repetition alone. By using this book, children will be able to undertand, without difficulty, the concept of addition by repeatedly tracing and reciting numbers first and then gradually shifting to addition formulas that include the numbers one and two.
